The Tottenham goalkeeper and captain is out for the rest of 2019, Spurs confirmed on Monday.
A number of Tottenham Hotspur fans have taken to Twitter to give their thoughts on Hugo Lloris having been ruled out for the remainder of the calendar year due to a dislocated elbow.
The Spurs keeper and skipper suffered the injury during Spurs’ 3-0 Premier League defeat away at Brighton on Saturday, falling awkwardly after falling to collect a cross.
Lloris does not need surgery but has suffered ligament damage and is not expected to return to training until January, Tottenham confirmed on Monday.
The captain of both Spurs and France would have joined up with Les Bleus for the forthcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers against Iceland and Turkey but now misses out.
Here is what some Tottenham fans said on social media regarding Lloris’ injury:
Lloris’ injury marks yet another setback for the Tottenham Hotspur Arena contingent, who have endured a torrid start to the new season, particularly after such a fruitful campaign last time out.
From finishing in the Premier League’s top four and making the Champions League final, Mauricio Pochettino’s charges are now well off the pace in the league, out of the League Cup at the hands of Colchester United, and beset by off-the-field rumours of dressing room unrest.
